Diksia.com - A transcript of the conversation, allegedly the last conversation about OceanGate’s Titan submarine, has appeared on social media.
The conversation allegedly took place between the Titan submarine and the Polar Prince.
As is well known, OceanGate’s Titan submarine was destroyed while carrying five people on June 18, 2023 for a tour of the Titanic ruins.
OceanGate’s Titan submarine lost communications en route to Titanic.
For days, rescuers have been fighting against time to find the ship and rescue the five people on board before they run out of oxygen.
However, on June 22, 2023, authorities reported that all passengers were pronounced dead because the submarine they were on exploded.
The explosion of the Titan submarine continues to cause public concern.
A transcript of a conversation allegedly held by the submarine Titan with the polar prince recently surfaced.
However, it is not yet known whether the transcript is real or fake.
Fill out the minutes of the interview
According to Newsweek, the ship Polar Prince initially allowed the submarine Titan to descend at 07:52 local time.
At 8:01 a.m. the new Titan submarine began its tour in the direction of the Titanic.
During the 15-minute dive, the Titan submarines were still in contact with the Polar Prince to report their status.
Then, at 8:34 a.m., Polar Prince inquired about the status of the Titan submarine and said that all systems were functioning normally.
At 0851 the Titan submarine had reached a depth of 1934.
Then at 09:28 the submarine Titan recorded an alarm from the Real-Time Monitoring System (RTM).
At the same time, the submarine Titan immediately reduced the depth at 3433.
The ship Polar Prince also requested the submarine Titan to release the ballast at 09:30.
“Let go of the weights,” said Polar Prince’s crew.
“No repairs. Preparing to scrap frame,” replied the crew of the Titan submarine.
The Titan submarine made its way to the surface at 09:35 after the ballast in the hull was removed.
From 09:38 the crackling could be heard from the stern of the Titan submarine.
The Polar Prince ship also asked about the source of the noise, but the Titan submarine was unable to identify it.
“Can you identify the source?” asked the crew of the Polar Prince.
“No,” replied the crew of the Titan submarine.
Then at 0940, the Polar Prince requested RTM status from the Titan submarine.
At 09:42, the Titan submarine reported that the RTM indicator was red, but the crackling at the ship’s stern had stopped.
At the same time, the submarine Titan reported that the ascent was very slow.
At 09:46, at a depth of 3457, the Titan submarine reported that there was a lot of noise behind the ship.
“Red writing on A-energy bus. I switched to B. More noise behind at 3457 m,” revealed the crew of the Titan submarine.
Thereafter, at 09:48, the Polar Prince attempted to contact the crew of the Titan submarine, but received no response.
As of 9:57 a.m., Polar Prince received no response from the Titan submarine crew.
Only achieved 13 out of 90 dives on the Titanic
It turns out that OceanGate’s Titan submarine had only made it to the Titanic about 13 times out of 90 dives.
According to insiders, this means the Titan submarine has only a 14 percent success rate in plunging into the depths of Titanic.
OceanGate claims to have conducted more than 14 expeditions and 200 dives in the Pacific, Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.
According to Forbes, the first successful dive to the Titanic will take place in 2021.
But since the submarine’s catastrophic explosion on June 18, which killed all five people on board, experts have debated many questions about its design.
Rob McCallum, who provided consulting services to OceanGate in 2009, has raised security concerns with its CEO Stockton Rush since 2018.
One of the biggest concerns of submarine experts is that no regulatory body has certified or approved the submarine.
The form states that Titan’s submarines “were constructed of a material not yet widely used in manned submarines.”
OceanGate co-founder Guillermo Sohnlein said the submarine has undergone a “rigorous testing program”, was developed over a 14-year period and is “extremely robust”.
But Brian Weed, a former passenger, told Insiders the submarine failed a test dive in 2021.
The reason was that the Titan’s submersible engines stopped working and became stuck underwater for more than two hours.
Weed also revealed that the Titan submarine was no deeper than 100 feet at the time.
Tests on the submarine at the Deep Ocean Test Facility, part of the United States Naval Academy, also found that the carbon fiber hull showed “signs of cyclic fatigue” at shallower depths.
As a result, OceanGate had to cancel its plans to dive the Titanic in 2018, 2019 and 2020.
